Before beginning, remove the cap from the brake fluid reservoir and place a rag around it to catch excess fluid that is forced out when you compress the piston in the caliper.
That was an excellent video. Clear and concise. Good point with cleaning and regreasing the sliders. On my new Jeep I never did that for 15 years and 250,000 miles. Now I'm going to be working on a 12 year old Liberty and I really should clean those up. You said the torque on the small bolts should be 28 foot pounds which was correct but for some weird reason the closed caption show 228, LOL. I thought it wise to mention that. But anyone who has worked on cars should know that small bolt will not survive 228 ft pounds.
Information for a 2012 Liberty is difficult to find, for some strange reason. Your video was the first place I found torque specs for the caliper bracket. Thanks!
What size bore brush is that? Alternatively, if you could tell me the size of that bolt, I could determine the size of the brush that I need. Nice job!
What about adjusting the parking brake shoe with a brake spoon? Was this not necessary? I’m reading that because of conditions in New England it is common to have to do this. Just trying to figure out if I need to in order to do this job.
BEWARE: non-OEM parking brake shoes may lack the correct end geometry - and you will never get a good parking brake action - took me years to find this out. Use only MOPAR parking brake shoes is my best advice. Or at least check your old vs new brake shoes. The web of the parking brake shoe needs to project beyond the flange of the shoe (at least at the ends that rest on the cable-actuated mechanism (with the bell-crank action).

Great video and attention to detail I could only hope that somebody that did my brakes did all of these things
TIP- Open your brake reservoir cap before compressing calipers. Put a rag around it to catch any spills. Great video, helped me do my 2010 Liberty.

Great suggestion. I jacked my Liberty up and saw something, then thought I busted a line somewhere. Guessing it was brake fluid.

Nice Video! I wish it was shown how the clips were installed thou. It's hard to tell as they are only shown already in position.
Thanks!!! That was the best instructional video ever! Great job!
First Class work, Sir.
can you please make a video for the rear wheel bearings of the 08-12 Jeep liberty
Thanks
+@ivan1u2be We're always cycling through common cars. We'll add this repair to our list! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
you should adjust the parking brake shoes before re-installing the mounting brake for the disc brake calipers.
What tool is he using to get the rust off? What sort of grinder/attachment is that?
Can you use a 12 gauge shotgun wire brush? Will it fit? If not what would?
Excellent video 😊
What is the name of the brake cleaner you used and the spray you used to spray the area where the rotor sits.
Thanks

Do I need to bleed my brakes after?
Thank you very much. Awesome video

I was looking for the same info
When ever I r&r rear brakes, I always replace my parking brake components/shoes. As little as I drive it all rusts before anything else
Todo un profesional, exelente 💪
Another great video!!!
Yes, you didn't show any adjusting on the adjustment wheel.
He'll of a time till we backed the adjustment off
Disagree on putting grease behind the abutment clips (tins).
Why is it never this easy 😂
What about the handbrakes? Should be doing them every time you’re at that stage.
